OK Obama is out, time to give him a letter grade for the past 8 years (myth, dictators)

[Magnum Mike]

Giving him an F would be giving him too much credit.

I think I'd like Obama as a guy to shoot some hoops with but was disappointed in him as a president. I wish him and his family well and it will be fun to see the girls grow up and go do their thing, just as it was with other kids who grew up in the White House.

I'd probably give him a C- though.

Well, he wasn't as bad as Pol Pot. Or Mao Tse-Tung. Now those are some dudes who really sucked. I'll give him a C. For "Cheap race hustler."

B-

Agreed. Its going to take several years to see how his policies and actions play out. Not looking good though. His foreign policy was unbelievably bad. Domestically he presided over an economy that benefited very few people and most social problems got worse on his watch. Obamacare was a disaster. He also decimated the Democrat Party by dragging taking it way to the left.

I'd say he will end up somewhere between an F and a C but we won't know for a few years.

Jimmy Carter too, because now HE's not the worst democrat president in history.

Oh, and I give him an F for failure in everything he did. And yew Bama lovers stop skewing the numbers.

About the same as the first Bush.

Grade: C+ (I give the second Bush an F-)

Here's the thing....Bush 1 cut Defense spending and raised taxes setting Clinton up and with E commerce Clinton has a strong economy served up for him. Of course after 8 years there was a recession.

Bush 2...got Dems to vote for everything. He controlled both houses for as long as Obama but actually got things done.

Obama failed in leadership to get congress on his side. The only thing he really got passed was the ACA and he had to bribe 2 dems to vote for it. 0 GOP voted for it. Bush 2 got tons of dems to vote for everything. By the end, Obama was driving the ship that had huge losses for the gems.
